S ~ His parents didn’t know what to think. “Son,” his mother said to him, “why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been frantic, searching for you everywhere.” Luke 2:48
O ~ Mary and Joseph were frantic. They did not know what had happened to Jesus. Probably the very last thing they thought was that He wandered off voluntarily to hang out at church. Romans?? Demons?? Who took Him? How could they manage it? Why didn’t God protect Him? So many frantic questions? Was He dead? Was He hurt? Was He lost?
A ~ As I think about this passage, I am mindful that Jesus responded with “What’s all the fuss?” “Didn’t you know?” There are so many unexpected things in life - so many times I can be tempted to be frantic. And yet, I think His answer is still the same... “What’s all the fuss?”. He is in control, so we have no need to be frantic.
P ~ Lord, in the midst of this covid-19 pandemic, please help me to model trust in You. During all fo this, may I be about my Father’s business.
